During this time, Runyan started taking in the music city where he started writing music and developing his musicianship with genres ranging from rock, country, blues, and EDM.
​
​​ In 2020, Runyan relocated from Tennessee to Michigan to be closer to family during the COVID-19 pandemic where he continued to write music as a hobby which later sparked the transition to build and develop a full service music production studio, Eagle-6 Studios. During this development, Runyan made the decision to return back to school to pursue a degree in Music Production at Full Sail University and graduated with honors in early 2024. Through his studies, Runyan has had the privilege to work hands on with industry leading professionals such as producer Ken Caillet (Michael Jackson, Pink Floyd), composer Dave Kropf (Disney, CBS, Sony), Producer Leslie Brathwaite (Cardi-B, Snoop Dogg), and many others.
Upon graduation, Tyler Runyan has been making great strides within the music industry fulfilling many roles to include various recording studio operations and live sound audio engineering. As a composer, he has also garnered many successful sync placement opportunities through Universal Production Music (Universal Studios). Because of his dedication to music, Tyler Runyan also received an RIAA Certified Spotify award for one of his albums titled 'Testing The Waters'.
In late summer of 2024, Runyan made the decision to return to Full Sail to gain extra training in Audio Production to further reinforce the industry standard skills learned with his previous attendance.
Through his dedication and passion within the music industry, Runyan received recognition with Grammy-U as well as being granted membership to the Country Music Association (CMA) and the Nashville Songwriters Association (NSAI) out of Nashville, Tennessee.

Reflecting on the process of using OBS to create and showcase my Industry Case Study, I gained valuable skills in both audio and visual production. Utilizing OBS to recording the presentation, allowed me to integrate various multimedia elements, synchronize visuals with audio, and ensure a high-quality production. This experience helped me refine my workflow for live streaming and recording, while also reinforcing techniques to balance visual clarity with professional sound, enhancing the overall presentation of my content. It also deepened my understanding of integrating different technical tools to create a polished, industry-standard video.
